RocknRoll Adventure - 20 hours in Melbourne.



I've been off the blog for so long, I've forgotten what link ups I do and the names of some of the blogs I like. I've barely written a thing, except one fairly average story for a competition....I'm beginning to wonder if I really have any commitment to this writing lark at all...









On Wednesday I pulled the ultimate decadence and flew to Melbourne to see 21 Pilots - we arrived at 5, had time for a cocktail and dinner then hit the Forum. We were back at the airport at 7am so it really was a flying visit! That said, it felt so special. And having spent the last month traveling with a myriad of kids, and a number of hurdles, it was so liberating to travel with no luggage and only have to remind one person to pack their stuff!














April has been a pretty amazing month for me, so I've definitely been #LovinLife!, Linking this old post with #FavouriteFotos because i like the way it makes the buildings look. I've since flown to Melbourne for Grace petrie and the Blind Boys of Alabama - it still feels so decadent, though with the current airfare prices, a thing of the past!

  7. Lovely to see you again Lydia. I'm off and on with the linkups - other than a book blogging one I do every Sunday.

    Great pictures and it looks like an amazing time. I don't know Melbourne very well so none of it is familiar!

  9. That was one hell of a visit! I've never had much of a yearning to go to Australia at all, actually, but you may be changing my mind... Melbourne at least!

    Thanks for sharing, and happy Wordless Wednesday! E xx

  14. Seems to me you needed this break to refuel so you can get back to your writing, or give it up all together. You have certainly been on a whirlwind adventure, whether it was for one night or an entire month with little ones. That is a fabulous tale and a great mural, too.
